Chapter 158 Jealousy
Mo Yi looked down and saw that the skirt was almost dry.
It’s just that the shoes are still wet and it’s uncomfortable to wear them on my feet.
After tidying up my appearance, I quickly went back to change my shoes.
When I returned to the main road, I saw a man walking towards me in a hurry.
"Sister Yi?"
Liang You?
When she saw him, Mo Yi didn't know what to think, and subconsciously hid the wet embroidered shoe inside her skirt.
"Brother Liang You."
"Why are you here alone? Is this... okay?" Liang You's voice was a little nervous, pointing at Mo Yi's shoes, one of which was dark in color and the other was light, as if they were wet.
"It's okay. There was a small puddle on the road and I stepped on it accidentally. Brother Liang You, I just saw Madam Hou."
Liang You thought, the lady probably didn't mention him to her. She didn't mention him to her either...
Feeling a little sad, "I didn't see you over there, but sister Mo Wen seemed to have just come back from this side."
"I was not with her."
"Are you okay?" they both asked at the same time.
"I'm fine..." the two people answered at the same time.
They all smiled bitterly again...
"I've been very busy lately. I'm planning to open a small shop to sell accessories, pendants, purses and other things. It hasn't opened yet!" Mo Yi took the initiative to ease the awkwardness.
"Then be sure to notify me when the business opens. I will give money to mother and Xinxin and ask them to come and support the business more often."
"It will cost a lot of money to build a new shop. I think the money that Brother Liang You gave me last time will have to be used. I plan to give Sister Xin a share. It will be used when she gets married in the future."
"That money is for you, you don't have to be like this. Xinxin is very happy to have new things. In two days, I will go out to see the Liang family's assets. I will be gone for a few months."
"Madam wants you to understand the foundation of the Liang family?"
"That's what I meant."
"So, has the title been decided?"
"Not yet. Let's do our work first. There's no rush."
The two people walked back while talking.
Mo Yi crossed his hands over his abdomen.
Liang You put one hand behind his back and the other hand hanging at his side.
The two of them walked and chatted at a leisurely pace at a distance. They were almost at the place where everyone was gathered...
"Mo Yi?" Three people came over from the fork in the road.
The first one, wearing black clothes and a silver crown, was Li Jing.
He looked at the two people in front of him expressionlessly.
To be honest, Liang You and Mo Yi were both a little surprised and a little guilty. However, these two were usually mature and rarely showed any expression.
Therefore, he did not show any obvious panic or guilt.
Mo Yi whispered, "This is His Royal Highness Prince Qi."
After saying that, he took two steps forward, "My Lord."
Liang You also stepped forward and bowed: "Liang You greets His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi!"
Li Jing knew that Mo Yi and Liang You had discussed marriage, and seeing the two of them alone together...
Oh, the sky is bright, the water is beautiful, the wind blows through the summer lotus, and the two of them walk like this, how can you describe it with just one word - beautiful?
I feel so uncomfortable in my heart!
Li Chang and Meng San, who were following behind him, suppressed their laughter, cleared their throats, and frowned.
Li Jing knew what kind of people the two behind him were like, so he turned around and said, "You two go over first."
Li Chang was confused: Where to go?
Are we okay?
Meng San pulled him and said, "Fourteenth Master, please."
"Hey..." Li Chang was about to say something when he was pulled away by Meng San.
Liang You was very nervous, just afraid that he would cause trouble for Mo Yi.
Li Jing asked seriously, "Liang You, has the Marquis' Mansion started reporting on the successor to the title?"
"In reply to your Majesty, Madam has not mentioned this matter yet. In two days, Liang You will go to Dingzhou according to Madam's order."
Dingzhou is the Liang family's birthplace, where their assets and foundations are located.
The fact that the Marquis' wife asked him to go showed that she valued him.
"Yes. Go back and tell Madam Jing'an to let me know when you report to the higher authorities."
Is this something I need to take care of?
"Yes." Liang You agreed.
"If you have finished talking...just go and get busy!" Li Jing said indifferently.
His words seemed to be filled with jealousy, but he himself hadn't realized it yet.
"Yes." Liang You saluted to the two of them, turned and left.
Mo Yi was a little nervous, but she looked calm. "The prince's villa is really beautiful and cool. It's very comfortable to live in."
Li Jing led her to the lakeside and said, "We seldom live here these years. So, we just do routine maintenance. We'll have to do a major overhaul later."
Mo Yi thought to himself, this still needs a major overhaul? !
As expected, the poor cannot understand the life of the powerful and rich.
"Are you going back to the city today?"
"I was going to go back, but I have something else to do. Maybe tomorrow morning."
"Does the prince have a place to live?"
"Let's see after we finish talking. I'll go back early. I'll just deal with it here tonight. Don't worry about it."
"yes."
"How's your shop going?" Li Jing suddenly realized that he talked a lot.
How could he care about a small, shabby shop? But he still asked out of concern...
Speaking of this, Mo Yi was excited...
…
Over there, Mo Yuan, who was flying a kite with great enthusiasm, was bumped by County Master Wenfang, who was also flying a kite.
Mo Yuan was knocked off balance and nearly fell to the ground. Her hands loosened and the kite string slipped out of her hands.
"How outrageous!" Princess Wenfang took the initiative to reprimand.
The maid behind her stepped forward and said, "Whose family are you from? Why are you so rude? This is our Princess Wenfang, the granddaughter of the Grand Princess. Don't you have eyes?"
The sound was quite loud and everyone around looked over.
It's her again? Does this county lady have a grudge against us?
Mo Yuan was furious. She didn't argue with the girl, but asked Wenfang County Lady directly: "It seems that the County Lady hit me, right?"
Lady Wenfang looked at her with contempt: "Did I bump into you? Why don't you tell me what you were looking at while flying the kite?" She glanced at the men over there.
Just now, the Wang sisters told her how unruly the Mo family girl was, going on a blind date with the Liang family, and throwing herself into the arms of the King of Qi...
County Lady Wenfang was so angry that she was about to explode. They really have a grudge against me!
Why are all the piles and pillars pulled with me?
"She was just looking at the kite. What else could she be looking at? How come the height of the kite also determines one's social status?"
Zhang Debao is here!
Mo Wen saw it and came over here too.
Princess Wenfang glanced at Zhang Debao and said, "I'm talking to her, why are you bothering me? Who is she to you?"
"When you see injustice, draw your sword and help! What's wrong? Miss Mo has been here all along. You came later. Shouldn't you have been more careful?"
Mo Yuan said quickly, "Thank you, Master Zhang, for speaking out for justice. But... forget it! Today is the Queen Mother's birthday. On such a good day, we should all be kind-hearted and not say bad things. Also... don't spoil everyone's fun!"
The meaning of this statement is not low.
Zhang Debao and the men who passed by nodded frequently, "Miss Mo is generous!"
"It seems that one cannot judge a person's moral character by his family background alone."
“That’s right.”
Princess Wenfang felt that she hadn't done anything wrong, but she was being treated like this. She immediately developed a rebellious mentality: "I was given the title of Princess when I was born. I am noble. What's wrong with that?!"
"The county lady is right! It was clearly our kite, but you snatched it away..." The girl from before also joined in excitedly.
"That's right... people from small and medium-sized families only know how to fight in an unseemly way, but they are so short-sighted." Another girl looked down on the men: they are all losers.
"The kite is mine. I gave it to Miss Mo to fly! If you want to say something, just say me. Why would you bother to compete with Miss Mo?" Zhang Debao is very useful. He will argue with anyone he meets.
"Hmph, once one person climbs up a high branch, he will attract several others..." the county lady's little maid muttered.
"Tsk! Do you think I don't understand what you are thinking? Look how jealous you all are!" Zhang Debao pointed at the girls without mercy.
"you!"
"Who's jealous?!"
Several women were making noises.
"What are you arguing about?" someone said in a deep voice.
Everyone turned around and saw... it was His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi.
Beside him was his young Mohist fiancée.
Thank you Yanzhihu1 for your reward. Thank you all for your votes. As the Spring Festival is approaching, the elderly in my family are in poor health... I am a little worried.
Try to keep updating.
